Thank you mate!  :onya:
Will give it a try, and then share feedback.

So this is my AFR table..........
Not without a long quest.
I decided after the fitting of my PC5 4-5 years ago its time to get it set up on a dyno and thn work from there.
First issue was she ran very lean under load and even adding 100% fuel there was no change in the leaning out, so that ment the fuel pump was on its way out, I have been cleaning my fuel tank every winter and the original fuel filter.
I was getting anoid with the fact that a new filter was so expensive and was not keen on the external filter mod, I wanted everything to stay internal.
Ordered the new fuel pump and fuel filter most use here as a external and once it arrived I started the quest. I ggot everything modded and then found it was not compact enough, so my dyno man had the means to make it compact. This is when we discovered the fuel pressure was to high at 3,5bar, this fuel system was designed to run at 3.0bar so this is problem number 2. To over come this my dyno man suggested we use two fuel pressure regulators and so the search began and I found Ducati regulators that did the job.
We done the dyno runs this morning and she seems fine.

Was the high pressure caused by the pump? Which fuel pump did you put in?

Bielie45

It was the fuel pump supplying to much flow.
I cant remember the brand fuel pump, it was for the 1400 specific apparently but when tested the flo was higer than they said, in hind side its a good thing the pump should be good for a long time and as time passes my target fuel pressure will be maintained for longer......well thats the theory depends if the pump was made on a monday, wednesday or friday 😂😂

Thanks @Bielie45 . Hope the pump will last forever. Quite the regulator contraption. Sounds like you got an excellent dyno man :onya:

Bielie45

Nothing lasts forever. I found another pump by accident(not searching for it specifically) that apparently has less friction and if I remember correctly was brushless but never could find it again, I would love to have tried that.
The only concern I have is if I fun low on fuel the bike leans out a bit when I hit 1 bar indicating on the fuel guage.

@Bielie45 interesting solution  :onya:
I'm also thinking about instal my fuel filter back inside the tank (currently I have GOLAN MINI external).
Could you post some pictures, how do you custom fuel pump + filter solution looks like?

Bielie45

I do have some more photos but I battle to load them, my connection is very bad hence the many posts about something simple 😂

If you look at the last two photos you will see I cut the fuel filter off of the pice that assists to secure the fuel pump.
The blue bit ontop is a copy of the part of the filter that secures the pump to the bowl, I printed that bit.
Only time will tell if the plastic bit works if it fails I have the drawings then I will CNC it out of aluminium
